1. This information is furnished as a courtesy to you by the Justice Court of Comal County, Texas, to assist you in making disposition of the charge(s) filed against you.  Your signature on your citation is a legal commitment to appear before the Judge.  Your appearance may be done completely by mail using the reply form.  You must respond on or before the appearance date on your citation.

2. If you wish to enter a plea of guilty or nolo contendere, your fine and costs are due with your plea.  A plea of nolo contendere means that you do not contest the state’s charge(s) against you.  The fine for a nolo contendere plea is the same as that for a plea of guilty.  Either plea indicates that you agree to waive appearance before the Court for trial.

3. You must refer to the schedule provided to you by the officer to determine the total amount of your fine(s) and cost assessed against you.  If you lost the fine and cost schedule, please call our office to obtain the correct amount.  Make your remittance to the Justice Court Pct. 1.  Return your copy of the citation and the reply form with your remittance to  assure proper credit.  No personal checks accepted

4. If you wish to enter a plea of not guilty, your case will be set for a pretrial hearing and you will be required to appear in open court. If you fail to respond to the charge(s) by the appearance date shown on the citation, an additional charge will be filed against you for failure to appear and warrants will be issued for your arrest.  You will be subject to immediate arrest and you may not be able to renew your driver’s license
